Yeah... well... I've already moved every other machine I deal with over 
to Courier. I like it because it's one-stop-shopping for all of my mail 
needs (ie, smtp, pop, and imap modules as well as an ssl version of 
each), because it supports authenticated smtp (which I understand Exim4 
does now but.... too late for me), and also because it has a variety of 
authentication methods.

We just haven't had the time to figure out how to port all of our 
virtual domains over to Courier yet, so we're still using Exim for the 
time being.
